When the beekeeper asked him to leave, he told him ”It’s all I can give you. Everyone moans that my honey is too expensive. Since the honey price is not high at all, you’ll be fine with this low wage.” He then got introduced to a high-rise window cleaning job, but he wasn’t good at working at heights and he couldn’t stop shaking. This kind of scenario greets most youngsters entering the job market these days.
To experience the young man’s tough summer from a POV perspective, you try to be a bee farmer, scrap-yard staff, window washer, hostess club waiter, chicken farmer and even a film crew. As a helpless fresh graduate, what can you do after got fired five times?
